Chapter 497: The Scapegoat
One......
Speaking of this, Ou Cheng turned his head and looked at Ou Chuyang: "How many years? I have never been stable for a day since I sat in this position, you know? The Eight Great Families did not rely on strength to have this fame, it was because of the "Eight War Techniques", each of the Eight Great Families has one, and it contains a big secret, and your father, regardless of the honor and disgrace of the family, actually stole it..."
Pointing at Ou Chuyang, Ou Cheng seemed to be touched by the past, and his whole body trembled with anger.
Looking at the old man in front of him lightly, Ou Chuyang said nothing.
He can experience the feeling of being the head of the family and worrying about everything, but this does not mean that he agrees with the other party's words. It is true that Ou Lingfeng was indeed a little selfish and did not take care of the family, but this is understandable, after all, a strong man who is only at the level of a martial artist wants to gain a foothold in the big 6, there is no security guarantee at all. Thunder and nine changes, just by hearing the name, you know that this exercise only belongs to the matching knife technique, without the knife technique, it is nothing. In order to protect himself and his powerless wife, Ou Lingfeng had no choice.
While pondering, Ou Chuyang suddenly raised his head and looked at Ou Cheng's eyes: "He is not wrong, you are not wrong, the fault is in that marriage involving politics." ”
"Haha~" Ou Cheng laughed wildly when he heard this, and a pair of tears slipped down without knowing whether to cry with joy or anger.
After a while, Ou Cheng restrained his laughter and said loudly: "That's right, we are not wrong, the fault is the marriage caused by politics, without the Nangong family, maybe the Ou family is stronger, the previous generation of family heads will not persecute him, and he Ou Lingfeng can also enjoy the warmth of his loved one, and sit firmly in the position I am sitting now." However, everything has already been born, and time will not turn back. Some things have become causes, and they must have an effect. ”
Ou Chuyang looked at Ou Cheng, his face was calm and scary, and he said in a deep voice: "So, you chose me?"
Ou Cheng nodded sadly and said: "Don't blame me, the family is now at a critical moment, there is no one to find the scroll of broken battle tricks, the current Xiaodang Mountain is not the Xiaodang Mountain of the past, we can show on our own, we can't defeat that force, we can go, there is no need to fight with them to the death, but in this way, the other five major families will definitely attack in groups, so, I need a person to choose, to find the best of the best, if I can't find it, it can be regarded as an explanation to the other five families." ”
"Scapegoat?" Ou Chuyang smiled slightly.
"That's right. Ou Cheng nodded solemnly.
The next moment, the hall was dead silent.
Ou Chuyang pondered for a long time, and in Ou Cheng's anxious eyes, he seemed to be petrified, and he didn't move.
It seemed that after a long time, Ou Chuyang finally raised his head, looked directly at Ou Cheng, and finally said, "Yes." ”
"What did you say?" Hearing these two words, Ou Cheng and Ou Haopeng were stunned on the spot, looked at Ou Chuyang in disbelief, and exclaimed.
Turning around, Ou Chuyang turned his back to the two of them and said, "I mean, I can promise you to be this scapegoat." ”
"Really?"
"But..."Ou Chuyang's words changed.
"But what?" asked Ou Cheng eagerly.
Ou Chuyang turned around, a pair of dark eyes flashed a purple light, and said, "I have one condition." ”
"On what terms?"
"If I can successfully recover the Nine Transformations of Thunder, you will restore my father's genealogy, and his bones must be buried on Xiaodang Mountain. Ou Chuyang said solemnly.
"No problem. When Ou Cheng heard this, he immediately agreed.
Ou Chuyang's request couldn't be simpler for Ou Cheng. According to Ou Cheng's thoughts, it is almost more difficult to go to the Dark City to find a scroll of battle tricks than to ascend to the sky, and even a powerful force like the Ou family does not dare to set foot in the killing that is full there. If the battle trick can't be recovered, the family will face the migration of the clan at the very least. But if someone can find the battle trick and get the support of the rest of the family, maybe they can really get rid of the pursuit of that powerful force and still guard the steady development of Xiaodang Mountain.
Therefore, Ou Cheng had already made preparations, no matter what kind of request Ou Chuyang made, he would respond to it in one go. It's just that what he didn't expect was that Ou Chuyang's needs would be so simple.
After thinking about it, Ou Cheng still couldn't believe it, and asked again: "Do you have any other requirements, if so, say them together." ”
Ou Chuyang smiled slightly: "It's gone." The rest is not a requirement, I need a lot of medicinal herbs now, if I have one in the family, can I use it at will?"
"That's fine. Ou Cheng agreed, and continued: "If you don't have any other requirements, then tomorrow, I will let you return to the family tree first, but there is one thing, the loss of the battle trick should not be known to the other five families, and you must know that if you can't find it, you will become the sinner who stole the war trick, and give an explanation to the five major families." ”
Ou Chuyang nodded and said, "I know this." When the time comes, I don't need you to do it, I'll cut it myself. ”
Ou Cheng looked at Ou Chuyang, a flash of appreciation flashed in his eyes, and then said: "Since this is the case, then let Haopeng take you to rest first, and tomorrow at noon, a homecoming ceremony will be held for you, and after the ceremony, you can set off." ”
Hearing this, Ou Chuyang didn't speak anymore, and took the lead in walking towards the door.
Seeing this, Ou Haopeng didn't say much, gave a salute to Ou Cheng, and followed.
In the evening, in Ou Chuyang's hut, Huang Lang, Xu Jie'er, and Qi Ling sat together, listening to Ou Chuyang's story, a nameless anger suddenly rose in the hearts of the three of them.
"It's too much, these bastards, do they still treat you as a member of the Ou family?" Huang Lang slapped the table heavily and scolded.
Xu Jie'er frowned, thought for a while, and said: "Ou Chuyang, it's better not to worry about any battle tricks, isn't it good for us to break through the big 6 together?
"That is, boss, with your strength and talent, as long as you have enough time, one day, you will become a martial god. Plus Brother Huang, and me, our alchemy talent, won't the big 6 go sideways in the future?" At this time, Qi Ling also got up and said indignantly.
Hearing this, Ou Chuyang waved his hand gently, motioned for the three of them to sit down, and said categorically: "No need to persuade me, I have already decided, I have to carry this black cauldron." ”
"Why?" Seeing that Ou Chuyang was so stubborn, the three of them asked in unison.
"Why, just for a breath, my father was expelled from the family back then, just because of a marriage, he left before he could swallow this breath, and since I know, I can't treat it as if I don't know anything. Furthermore, my father had only one wish, and that was to return to the family tree. As his son, I have to help him do it. Also, maybe through this time, I can find out the cause of my father's death and avenge my father. Ou Chuyang said, a resolute brilliance flashed in his eyes.
Seeing that it was useless for the three of them to persuade again, the three of them could only give up, but Xu Jie'er was still very worried and asked: "That's a dark city, there, even some big forces don't dare to set foot in it, but we only have the realm of martial artists, I'm afraid that I won't be able to complete the task by then, and I will throw my life there." ”
"Are you afraid?" Ou Chuyang approached Xu Jie'er and said softly.
Maybe it was a little close, Xu Jie'er immediately dodged backwards like a conditioned reflex when Ou Chuyang came over, and a touch of crimson climbed on her pretty face, and she said shyly: "I'm not afraid." I'm afraid of you..."
Ou Chuyang sat up straight again, frowned, and said, "What are you afraid of me?" Don't worry, maybe, things are not as bad as we imagined. ”
Hearing this, the three of them were stunned, and they all looked at Ou Chuyang suspiciously.
Ou Chuyang stood up, looked at the sunset that was about to set in the sky, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and muttered: "Dark City, maybe it's fun enough there." ”
The setting sun gave its last smile to the earth and disappeared into the horizon. In an instant, darkness began to cover the earth, and in the boundless night sky, only the bright moonlight and a little faint starlight fought for a little light in this endless darkness.
It seems to want to compete with the moonlight, Xiaodang Mountain Peak, in a house, through the window crack, faintly revealing a faint purple light.
On the bed, Ou Chuyang sat cross-legged, only to see his eyes closed, his face calm, his hands pinching the seal, naturally placed on his knees. A moment later, with the operation of the internal qi, his person was even more enveloped by a layer of misty purple qi.
Different from the external release of the internal qi of a martial artist-level powerhouse, this is just Ou Chuyang's entry into the cultivation state of the void, and the aura of heaven and earth that he has attracted converges and slowly absorbs under the guidance of the internal qi.
For Ou Chuyang, compared to being in the Holy Land Vitality Pool, the aura around him is much lacking at present. But what Ou Chuyang wants is not to absorb aura and then improve his strength. What he has to do now is to consolidate his strength.
After three years of underground cultivation, Ou Chuyang has almost devoted all his time to maintaining the Great Array, if it weren't for the Origin Wood Spirit being imprisoned by the former, I'm afraid that Ou Chuyang now would be no different from three years ago.
The realm of a seventh-level martial artist is only its superficial strength, Ou Chuyang knows in his heart that he has two high-level martial arts, Shadow Nine Flashes and Breaking Dome Strength, and his overall strength has passed the limit of this level, not to mention, Ou Chuyang still has that palm thunder that has not been used for a long time. How many times, Ou Chuyang was guessing the strange purple qi in his body, this purple qi was able to transcend the restraints of the level, and prematurely formed a palm thunder like the release of internal qi, which was of course unknown to Ou Chuyang before, but since he broke through to become a martial artist, Ou Chuyang paid more attention to the palm thunder. Obviously, the skill of palm thunder is to release internal qi and external qi.
The two high-level martial arts, plus the palm thunder are not enough. Ou Chuyang also has the soul trick and the Great Spirit Penetration Technique taught by the Wang Array, plus the Origin Wood Spirit imprisoned by the former in the dantian can be mobilized, and now Ou Chuyang's strength is not as simple as it seems.
Ou Chuyang roughly estimated that even if he counted the weight of nine hundred catties, he was fully capable of fighting with a strong man at the level of Wuzun. If people see such strength, they will definitely be shocked.
The two realms of seventh-level martial artist and junior martial artist, although analyzed from the meaning of the word, are not too different. But all martial cultivators know that these two realms are actually a huge watershed on the path of martial cultivation. Not to mention a seventh-level martial artist, even if half of his feet have already stepped into the martial venerable level, he is just one point short of that, and his strength will be thousands of miles behind. After all, a martial honorable powerhouse can break free from the shackles of gravity and soar into the sky. But under such circumstances, Ou Chuyang still broke the due routine. If there was a first-level or second-level martial arts powerhouse now, Ou Chuyang dared to assert that he could fight with him after taking off the weight of his whole body.
Everything has laid the foundation for Ou Chuyang's arrogant capital, and it is precisely because he knows his current situation extremely well that Ou Chuyang dares to stand in front of the senior of the family with an extremely strong attitude after returning to Xiaodang Mountain.
This time when he came back, although Ou Chuyang was only concerned about the safety of Ou Haopeng and Ou Qing, there was another point that Ou Chuyang had to let the Ou family know that he Ou Chuyang was not a good match. Any character who ignores himself will pay the price for his actions.
The disciples of the gate were like this, and so were the children of the family who besieged him, even the two seniors Li and Lan, who had a lot of status in the family, were treated equally by Ou Chuyang, and even, when he stood in front of Ou Cheng and the four elders, he did not lower his arrogant head, and faced the former with a contemptuous gaze.
For this Ou family, except for those few people, Ou Chu ** did not have a good impression, but his heart was even more angry because of Ou Lingfeng's experience. Therefore, when the two elders, Ou Xian and Li Zhongtian, angrily reprimanded themselves, if their actions went half a step into Ou Chuyang's thunder pool, Ou Chuyang would not hesitate to burst out and bombard him.
"Can't beat it, sir, I still have a secret technique to burn blood. Ou Chuyang thought so.
Holding his hands up, he slowly moved to the right side of his body, drawing a large circle.
"Whew~"
After exhaling a breath of turbid air and completing a Great Zhou Tian cycle, Ou Chuyang opened his eyes. When he landed, a purple light erupted from his dark eyes, and the fierce momentum was released, but it was brighter than the stars in the dark night sky.
Looking down at the powerful fists, a surging confidence naturally rose out.
"Boom~"
There was a low thunder in the distant mountain sky, Ou Chuyang got out of bed, pushed open the window, and saw no lightning, and a misty drizzle fell in the sky.
It was late at night, and the spring rain was coming. There was no barrier in front of him, Ou Chuyang could clearly feel the slight coolness of his body, and then took a deep breath, and the earthy breath full of life in the air immediately wore his nasal cavity, touching Ou Chuyang's heart.
In his mind, a white figure slowly converged and took shape, and as the figure gradually became clear, Ou Chuyang seemed to see the delicate and innocent smiling face he once had.
"Yao'er. A soft call from the bottom of his heart evoked Ou Chuyang's memories.
At this time, Ou Chuyang seemed to have returned to a few years ago, when he had just debuted, in the Suncurtain Forest, he saw Mu Wanqing, who had been holding his inner emotions.
